Dysfunctional autophagy is linked to various diseases, including psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. Recent evidence suggests that exposure of keratinocytes to TNF-α results in impaired autophagy and lysosomal function. The skin of patients with psoriasis and atopic dermatitis reveals a decreased expression of lysosomal cathepsins. Impaired autophagy is presumably involved in inflammation and disturbed keratinocyte differentiation, whereas stimulating autophagy might be a treatment option in inflammatory skin disease.
功能失调的自噬与多种疾病相关,包括银屑病和特应性皮炎。最近的证据表明,角质形成细胞暴露于肿瘤坏死因子-α会导致自噬和溶酶体功能受损。银屑病和特应性皮炎患者的皮肤显示溶酶体组织蛋白酶的表达降低。自噬受损可能参与炎症反应和角质形成细胞分化紊乱,而刺激自噬可能是炎症性皮肤病的一种治疗选择。
